But service here?- is vomit trash level even by Hillsborough standards. One of the cleaning staff literally yelled (yes, yelled) at me for a changing to eat at another table. I did not leave any trash, not even a flake of bisquet and the guy acted as if I'd wiped out his entire lineage in a past life. Unacceptable bottom barrel behavior. Hellish ambience, loud, unsafe, trash even by Hillsborough standards.

Service was quick and delightful. I felt embraced and a part of the town immediately thanks to the hospitality of the Nosh team. We all had bacon cheese burgers - all excellent!

All in all a solid visit, perfect menu variety, and a fun and welcoming environment....check it out!

A group of us visited this restaurant after our 5K as part of a birthday celebration. The staff was…read morevery courteous and friendly. They answered our questions and provided recommendations upon request. We had a large group, so it was taking a while for all of the food to be ready. I decided to just get a raspberry white chocolate scone and a greena colada so that I didn't have to wait a very long time to eat. We enjoyed sitting upstairs where we could all sit together and watch the scenery while eating. The kids loved the space, and it also provided us with some privacy for our birthday celebration. The scone was very good. I was a bit disappointed with the smoothie, though. I was expecting it to be flavorful and naturally sweet due to the mangoes and pineapple as well as the honey that was supposed to be added, but it was quite bland and not flavorful at all. Everyone else seemed to have enjoyed their food.

We only ordered nuggets and a drink. Already been 56 minutes since we arrived and have not received food. Update 1. Walked up to the window and they said they delivered it to me a long time ago. I never left the parking spot. Update 2. The Manager remembered preparing our orders, because it was two separate ones. I cannot fault them because someone took advantage and said our order was theirs. The Manager fixed my order, and is in the process of reversing the charges for our order and fixed the problem on the spot.

Employees seem genuinely happy to interact with you and in many instances, have made awesome suggestions for modifications if an ingredient happens to be out of stock. If the weather is nice, I love eating on the patio to get in a little sunshine and a little people watching. Their rewards program is pretty great--I don't feel that it takes an obnoxiously long time to earn rewards. The app is also super convenient in that you can order ahead and offers curbside pickup (clutch when swinging by during peak times as Ninth St parking can get a little dicey).

Even at 1:30 am, they're friendly, quick and the food delicious! This place sets the mood in the same way Waffle House or any gas station bathroom does - classically janky....though I'll say it has had a facelift since we were last here. We went to another cookout when we touched down and left because it looked too nice and didn't have a wrong sided drive thru! As such, we came back down Nostalgias highway to our OG cookout on Hillsbrough! It was exactly what we wanted! The stand alone, dual drive thru (with walk up) set up of this place is nothing short of amazing. If you had to design a place, it might accidentally turn out like this and you'd just accept it, not realizing the brilliance that is passing food through a passenger window! Seriously, of through the drive thru on the left. The food is such a perfect example of southern burgers - it's like in-n-out that you want to come back to! Cheddar style, steak style, west style - don't matter, it's all boss level! You'd like a burger with sides of corn dog and walking taco? Got it - one of 55 shake options? Done - more hush puppies? On it! The loudspeakers have been improved upon - you used to just pretend you understood what was being said and accept what you received. Now, they repeat it back at least. Our kids scarfed it down so fast we literally went through and ordered a second time, 6 minutes later. Three burgers, nuggets, rings and the equivalent of three pints of ice cream can't be wrong! Aside from my children, I may not love a human child more than this burger joint. It's so good, any time, any days, double stamp it, touch blue make it true, no eraseys! Thanks for living up to the hype 15 years later!

Next I tried the famous "righteous chicken sandwich"- fried chicken, with pickles and "Boom Boom" sauce- and was thoroughly pleased. The bread was fresh and fluffy (as was the biscuit on the first sandwich), the chicken was lightly breaded, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the flavors popped. Easy to see why this is their most famous sandwich. I would definitely return for breakfast/brunch again! Note- location in downtown Durham is to-go orders only! (Online or at the kiosk inside the store.)

I blame Rise for the demise of my NY resolution! My nephew loved the chicken basket, including biscuits, that he requested to go back the next day before heading to the airport. The fries were perfectly seasoned and cooked. The 2 egg biscuit sandwich was tasty and protein packed with 2 scrambled eggs. I had it on a cheddar biscuit, which was wonderful. Bottom line: Eat at Rise! Every morning.

We both had a classic burger (him with no pickles, me with no special sauce), shared an order of fries, he had an IPA and I got a blackberry mojito for about $40.

The employees were friendly and helpful. And I feel like everything was priced well and appropriately. The not so good: The meat was just meh and the onions were straight up burnt. Not caramelized, burnt. Overall, the burger was decent, just not great like we were hoping. We sat at our table for quite some time and had a few drinks. It was busy but never too crowded. There was a line but it moved quickly. I would reccommend this place to grab a quick bite before a DPAC show!

So I'm being generous here with three stars. Full disclosure I'll be back. The Brussels were…read moreamazing! The burger tasted amazing UNTIL not just one part but multiple parts were undercooked and pink. That's fine for a steak not for ground beef that's a health violation. I love the agua frescas!

I haven't had the fries from Chick-fil-A in years because I've never really enjoyed them, but I wanted to give them another chance. The fries were not hot enough and not worth the price in my option.

I ordered the SHREDDED BEEF AREPA which also comes with plantains, cheese and beans inside. I chose garlic sauce and it was superb on the arepa! Very delicious and I suspect the arepa samdwiches are gluten free for those intolerant, but I didn't ask. The TORTILLA CHIPS that come with the meal are good, and suspect they make them in-house. The SERVICE was horrible. Guy behind counter told me the soda machine only had diet soda, which was what I wanted anyway. Out of curiosity I asked if it was hospital policy to exclude sugar soda or if the machine was just out of sugar syrups. He responded "don't know" in a "don't care" attitude. I went to fill my cup and the machine didn't serve ice either! This place could really help people in the hospital by smiling and showing they care about the customer. Most eating here in the hospital cafeteria are carrying the weight of poor health on their shoulders, whether their own or a loved one. It's a hospital cafeteria so its a place to sit down, and could be a good break from sitting in a loved ones patient room. It's not a restaurant that one would come to if not in the hospital.

It's harder to find arepas than it should be. There's just something about grilling corn that makes…read moreit irresistable. What's notable about this local chain is its extensive options for vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free diners. The default arepa apparently has some dairy and gluten in it, but options for getting one to suit a vegan or gluten-free diet are there. The filling options for an arepa are customizable and numerous, with a range of flavors and nutritional profiles. My takeout order was ready speedily. Oddly, they gave me an extra arepa, which was unlabeled except for saying that it was a gift. It didn't seem to be vegetarian, so I didn't eat it. I appreciate the sentiment, but they might want to think about at least making it clearer what's going on.
